Chapter 82 Distant Dorgon
The grain is fried highland barley, which is also one of the staple foods of the Mongols. Gao Jie stopped a soldier from stuffing the grain into his mouth. , the soldier put the grain at the camel's mouth.
The camel smelled the fragrance of highland barley and ate it without hesitation. After the camel had eaten seven or eight kilograms of highland barley, Gao Jie asked the soldiers to keep an eye on the camel.
Looking around, the people and horses who were chasing each other just now disappeared on the grassland. They were only seen occasionally when the wind blew and the grass was low.
In places with lush vegetation, camels’ long legs are actually very advantageous. The people on the camel team seem to understand this, and they will flee wherever there is lush vegetation.
The rain in Chilechuan this year has been good, and the grass has grown luxuriantly, making it look as if the cattle and sheep are visible due to the wind blowing through the grass. This has brought great trouble to the pursuers.
Gao Jie stayed where he was. The camel's back was full of grain, and it was all full-grained barley. The camel that ate the barley had no intention of dying from the poison until now, and drank it. It looked more lively after some water, which made Gao Jie extremely puzzled.
At this time, the men who were chasing the camel team came back one after another, but Gao Jie didn't see any prisoners, and he couldn't help but frown.
"The camels stayed behind and the people entered the mountains. We didn't have time to catch them one by one, so they came back."
After listening to his subordinates' explanation, Gao Jie nodded and said: "Take them with you." I always feel that something is wrong this time."
A soldier said: "The people in the camel team don't look like Mongolians."
Gao Jie was stunned and said: "Why. "Say?"
The soldier cupped his fists and said: "Report to the general, the method of tying the bags is different. These knots are the Han people's method of tying. The Mongolian knots are completely different from our knots." ”
While talking, he found a rope and tied three or four kinds of knots after a while. Gao Jie looked at it carefully and said, “It’s really different. How did you know?”< /p>
The soldier smiled and said: "The guy under the mark was originally a guy from the Mongolian caravan."
Gao Jie smiled and asked: "Who likes to use this kind of knot?" "
The soldier chuckled and said: "One chain buckle, this is the Zhangjiakou leather rope binding method. It is very secure and easy to disassemble."
Gao Jie laughed. : "This group of stupid profiteers from Zhangjiakou also came to harm grandpa. When Guihua City is built, grandpa will make them regret coming to this world.
Someone, take away the camel. , also took away the food and told everyone that there is something wrong with this batch of food and cannot be moved."
"General, we already have a lot of luggage, do you want to go back?"
Gao Jie? Said: "Let's go back and send someone to inform Lu Xiangsheng. Tell him the situation here word for word and listen to his opinions."
When meeting Qian Shaoshao on the road, Gao Jie I already knew about the idea of the Tumote Department to gather in Datong, and thought it was a separate incident..
Now even the businessmen in Zhangjiakou have begun to murder them, a group of horse thieves who have made the grassland uneasy. This shows that the actions of the Tumote Department are no longer just to harass Datong and Xuanfu, but a planned one. , a premeditated act.
This can never be a small incident. It should be a unified plan by the Manchu slaves.
Gao Jie felt that it was necessary to have a good talk with Lu Xiangsheng from Datong. However, Lu Xiangsheng had a supervisor in the army and was closely monitored by them. His current identity was embarrassing and it would bring trouble to Lu Xiangsheng.
However, it is still necessary to let Lu Fu experience Datong.
It is not difficult to rob on the grassland, but it is difficult to get the trophies. They all have legs, so they have to be carried wherever they go, and they have to herd them, which is very troublesome.
So, the more successful the robbery, the greater the trouble, and many people had to be detached from the army to herd...
Fortunately, the Yun's caravan came every other month They would come once to deliver new supplies and carry away new loot. If this line was blocked, Gao Jie's three thousand army would have become sheepherders long ago.
More than a hundred people drove a herd of cattle, sheep and camels, slowly approaching the camp.
Gao Jie walked at the end, looking at the traces of cattle and sheep trampling on the grass, and couldn't help but smile. It seemed that the cattle, sheep, and camel grain harvested in the past few days must have been intentionally left behind. .
I don’t know who is going to search the lair of their group of horse thieves, and I don’t know if they will send people to exterminate them. Gao Jie is very eager for this.
The ultimate goal of training troops is to fight. So far, the three thousand men in his hands have not suffered any real battle losses.
Gao Jie thinks this is inappropriate. He needs a real war to test the results of his training over the past six months.
While camping in the evening, the camel that had eaten highland barley finally started to have diarrhea, and finally it was writhing on its bed. After another hour, the camel's mouth and nose were filled with mucus. Although he could still blink his eyelids, breathing became a problem.
Watching the camel exhale its last breath, Gao Jie looked at the shocked subordinates around him and said: "Put this batch of highland barley away. I am going to treat those people to eat after I conquer Zhangjiakou.
From now on, change your habit of eating loot casually and eat it without risking your life!
Send Qian Shaoshao a message and ask him why he doesn’t know such news. Isn’t he bragging that he has done it secretly? Have you taken control of Zhangjiakou?"
It was already the afternoon of the next day when Qian Shaoshao received the news.
After reading Gao Jie’s censure document, he silently crumpled the document into a ball of paper.
He called Xue Guocai, threw the paper ball in his face unceremoniously, and said solemnly: "This is the first big mistake we have made. Fortunately, Gao Jie was alert, otherwise, we would have The whole army was wiped out and I didn’t know what was going on."
Xue Guocai opened the paper ball in confusion and looked at it with a confused look on his face.Become pale.
Qian Shaoshao whispered: "I don't mean to blame you. I didn't hand over all the manpower arranged by Zhangjiakou to you.
Now that something like this has happened, I just want to You know what went wrong and made us deaf and blind.
It shouldn’t be difficult to find out who is trying to kill us by going to Zhangjiakou yourself. ”
p>Xue Guocai bowed and said: "This is my fault. I have been extremely careful in everything. I didn't expect that there are loopholes that we can't see.
After I find out the root cause of the matter , I will ask for punishment myself."
Qian Shaoshao waved his hand and said: "Mistakes are inevitable, and punishment is even more necessary. Our top priority is to quickly find out whether the poisoning is related to the Tumote troops.
If there is a connection, I want to know what the purpose of establishing slaves is and who is the person who implemented this plan. First of all, we can rule out Bao Chengxian and Zhuo Lu. I even think these two guys don’t know that there is such a thing until now. Something happened."
Xue Guocai took a long breath, put down the documents in his hand, and left the yurt.
Shao Shaoqian put the crumpled document on the candle and lit it, then sat on the blanket, looked at the dark brown cowhide on the yurt and said softly: "Who is it? He also knows how to use tricks, and he also So vicious, and they only used businessmen from Zhangjiakou... Is it Fan Wencheng or Ning Wanme?"
Everything is just Qian Shaoshao's guess.
A middle-aged man in Tsing Yi with a clear face sat firmly in the seat of the owner, lowering his head and playing with an agate ring. The tea in front of him had been changed countless times, but he still did not leave his seat. meaning.
Fan Xiaoshan, who was sitting in the guest seat, seemed to have a sore on his buttocks. He stood up several times in a short period of time, and each time he looked out the window, as if he was waiting for someone.
Seeing that Fan Xiaoshan couldn't sit still, the middle-aged man in green chuckled and said, "Xiao Shan, it's a long way from Zhangjiakou to Chilechuan. It's only been half a month. You're too impatient. "
Fan Xiaoshan cupped his hands and said: "Mr. Wen Cheng, this is the first order Prince Shuorui has given to the villain. If there is any mistake, how do you want the villain to report back to Prince Shuorui?"
< p>Fan Wencheng waved his hand and said: "This is just one of the methods. During this period, Bao Chengxian has repeatedly reported that Guihua City is progressing smoothly, but Zhuo Lajiala always loses his troops. Five hundred warriors actually With more than half of the battle damage, and the various materials you transported to Mongolia being intercepted many times, Prince Shuorui thought that there should be a third party unknown to all of us in Guihua City.We sent it. People checked Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, and even Sun Chuanting and Jiubian General, and the news they got was not ideal. No one sent troops to the Guihua City area.
However, this army is obviously. Yes, the Mongols have long since lost the intention to fight again against our Jianzhou warriors. It makes no sense for Zhuo La to lose his troops.
It’s great if our plan works this time, but it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t, as long as it doesn’t work. Able to knowIt would be great if Tao had such a force.
Once confirmed, it can be strangled.
Xiao Shan, since Prince Shuorui can send you errands, this is a sign of your great blessing. If you do it well, there will be good results. ”
